Tony D. Posted February 2, 2021 Report Share Posted February 2, 2021 I remember how sad everyone was when he died in Miami Vice. Now he is truly gone. May he be happy in Heaven. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.FL84 Posted February 19, 2021 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 RIP Lt Rodriguez. That absolutely magical 1st episode will forever own a special place in my and countless other's hearts. I'll never forget "By the book Sonny or I swear I'm taking you off the street!". You could feel the electricity in the air of that iconic opening episode. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved his time as lieutenant at the beginning of the show, I don't know what it is but there is a special vibe to it, much different from "One Eyed Jack" onwards. EJO joining was a masterstroke by Michael Mann but Gregory's time on the show fitted perfectly in the beginning. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakespyder Posted February 19, 2021 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 Rodriguez was more affable than Castillo while still managing to be a tough boss when needed. The way he shot down Sonny's question "Where'd you get the money?" was every bit as powerful as one of Castillo's stares. The only difference is noone would be game enough to ask Castillo a question like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EJO joining was a masterstroke by Michael Mann but Gregory's time on the show fitted perfectly in the beginning. Tell you what, I loved it too! The Lt. Rodriguez character was great in his own way and had its own charisma. He was one of the few who could put Sonny in his place (with Castillo of course) when he stepped out of line. EJO was a great addition to the show bringing new depths of character and stayed till the very end. Difficult to say had G.Sierra continued with MV how is character would have evolved...I'd imagine the show would have taken a different direction and we wouldn't have had episodes like the golden triangle, Bushido, heart of night, Borrasca and more importantly the trademark "stare down". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
